  Scientific explanation of how spirit creatures could materialize

  by EndofMysteries in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my science class book i was just reading about particles and antiparticles.. i'll just quote a few parts, "every type of particle in nature must also have an alter ego, an antiparticle........one fascinating property of particle-antiparticles pairs is that if you bring such a pair together, the two particles will annihilate each other......when the pair annihilates, the mass of the two particles is converted into energy which is carried away by a pair of photons.....the reverse is also possible, two photons may collide to produce a particle and it's antiparticle-by a process called pair production.. so assuming spirit creatures are made of energy, there is a scientific explanation of how energy can become physical mass, and physical mass to energy.

  whether you believe they exist or not, i thought that was an interesting read and a way to explain how they could materialize and de-materialize.. .

  Of course spirits are made of energy. That's why the hair on the back of your neck stands up when they are nearby.

  Yo, it's science!

  What should the WBT$ do to get on track?

  by punkofnice in

  it looks as if the gb are blundering around and really showing themselves up for the buffoons they are.

  all the stupidity about tight trousers is laughable and if the general public were to see these selfmportant cult leaders blabbing this stuff then the last shred of their credibility would be destroyed.........perhaps.. the wbt$ seem to have dug themselves into a deep pit of no escape with their lies, new light(tm), paedophile protection and all the other nauseating peripherals they have.. we also suspect that the wbt$ have their spies here because they are either predictable or get ideas form forums like this.. so!

  are you listening watchtower(r)?

  My advice is to humanize the religion more by putting more of a face to it.

  So get more of those talks out there by the GB. No need to keep them on script, they're smart guys, they're guided by holy spirit, let them say whatever comes to mind.

  Get more of those cartoons out there. Make sure there's always that look of disapproval from the mom. Kids respond well to that.

  Since they re-define a lot of words anyways, why not just go ahead and write a dictionary? Maybe then more people can appreciate the linguistics of the word 'generation'.

  Is it really allowed for a JW to listen to radio or look at TV??

  by Mr Fool in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  if almost every song, every radio host, every actor is influenced by satan it should be forbidden for every jw to listen to radio and look at tv, right?!

  or have i missed something?.

  Yep. We all sin everyday. Every activity beyond going to jw.org, going to meeting, out in service and studying is sinning.

  After South Park or some other show does a mormon, etc. spoof, I see people here wanting the same to be done to the JWs. But can you imagine what a boring episode that would be? They usually only get a 5 second remark about them being a doomsday cult or something (I still want the WT that looked like the one that Family Guy 1st used of the nuke mushroom cloud).

  I'm always glad whenever they themselves bring on the ridicule. It's a win-win situation for us. We don't look like raving lunatics and they bring that crap upon themselves.

  Speaking of which, I miss Sparlock.

  that's the word according to my mil.

  mrs hoser is starting a new career and the college and work training will take her four years to complete.

  her mom is giving her a hard time telling her that the system will be over before she graduates.

  Earth rotates the wrong way. ( no one even knew that )

  by kairos in

  2. beliefs

  i've heard it mentioned a few times.. the rotating earth graphic in the background on jwtv rotates backwards.. i've mentioned it to the active and they are not concerned at all.. my response is, "it's something they are portraying that cannot be more wrong".. .

  two gb members have stood in front of it telling us to trust them.

  how can you when they think the sun rises in the west.... .

  Ha! True that!

  Well, maybe because of the whole "faith can move mountains" and whoever it was that stopped the sun, maybe the GB is letting everyone know that got plans to talk jehovah into changing the earths rotation.

  It could happen.

  ....and then I see prologos already said that.

  ......to see how much i get love bombed in my tight pants and bright socks.. i bet they'll totally respect my gb approved pinky ring though.. i haven't been to a meeting since 1994 so i wonder if they'll get the irony if i ask, "so what's changed?".

  good effin' lord....i just realized i've been out for 20 years.. .

  SoJo16- I would see challenging the narrative rather easy anymore as I see this as a dead religion. It's been 100 years since 1914. They were talking out of their ass. The generation is dead. None of this "overlapping generation" crap. Dead. *drops mike*

  Laverite- I might have done something like that in my youth. Now that I'm older....

  "It's the intent that counts and not the result."

  "it's the intent that counts not the result.".

  i have been out of the jw organization for some 22 years now and i sometimes get a reminding jolt out the hoops that some will jump through to make their religion make sense to them.

  the first line in this post is what a jw on the street here in salinas told me on saturday when trying to justify the society's history of false prophecies.

  So they can ruin peoples lives, deny people a good education and a bunch of other crap because some old farts have "good intentions"? Ok, got it.
